可是申opt要时间的撒...算运气好速度很快也要2个月才能approve然后拿到卡

24个月的那个training plan好麻烦。。。

5月10号开始24个月的ext,你现在投过去估计会是10号后,当然除非是隔夜邮递,10号前处理就是按照现在的17个 ...

wrong, school only provides 17-month I-20 before May 10th even though you send them to USCIS after that time
request I-20 no earlier than May 10th to school if you want 24-month extension I-20

not recommend so late application for extension
actually your docs need to be DELIVERED to USCIS before your current OPT expiring date
AND you need to wait for:
1) delivery time to send your docs to school to request a new I-20
2) around 1 week for school office to issue your new I-20
3) delivery time for school to send new I-20 back to you and you sign it
4) delivery time for school to send your docs to USCIS after you email the scanned copy of your signed I-20 back to school office
process may vary among different schools but it usually takes at least 3 weeks to complete above all even you use Fedex first overnight for all the delivery
please take into consideration any conditions that you miss required docs or school office takes long time to process your case

感谢你的回复！5月末之前我就着手开始办吧，寄希望于到时候H1b能approve，能省不少麻烦。

这个不是要等批了才行吧？
首先，cap gap自动就到9月30了，OPT extension早点晚点都行吧
其次，就算不考虑cap gap，也是凭着receipt之类的就能继续工作吧？

1. The timeline I said is just the time you take to deliver your case to USCIS, not the time USCIS spends processing your case to make final decision, even not the time USCIS takes to give you receipt number, understand? You need time to process your new I-20 and deliver docs between your school and USCIS.

Based on my own case, I shipped my docs to school to request new I-20 at April 20 and received text message from USCIS saying that my application was delivered JUST NOW. You can count how many days I took to just deliver my docs.

2. I don't know whether you are selected in H1B this year. If you're selected, then you will have a cap gap automatically extending to Oct 1st, but it's for H1B not for OPT extension. You need to deliver your OPT extension application to USCIS before your current OPT expiring date presented on your EAD card. After that time, you will not have a chance to apply for OPT extension no matter what status you are on.

I think you are not clear about the OPT extension and recommend you should have a talk with F-1 counselor in the international student office in your school. It took me 3 weeks to deliver docs to USCIS even I used Fedex overnight delivery and didn't miss anything required. So one month at least prior to June 15 is necessary if you want to apply for OPT extension. Remember again you will not be eligible to OPT extension after June 15.
